So how many have 3rd gens. engines? 3? 4? Yours is a Cosmo which is different
even than a third gen.

Maybe more than you think, Paul.  I purchased as a core a 94' that was
pulled "in running condiition" w/ approx 90,000 mi for $1600.  Another
project has gotten in the way (motorglider), but I have mostly just been
waiting for the right combination of "off the shelf" parts to become
available.  With the announcement of Tracy's 2.85 PSRU, and your intake
(even if modifications are necessary), a $2000 HKS TO-4 Turbo exhaust
manifold, Jerry's mount, Tracy's ECU ... it is becoming a lot closer to
reality.  I even have dreams of an LAEV prop!

Don't write off us 3rd gen people  .... but I'd gladly trade up to a
RENESIS!

OK five :) Hey if you guys want to pay $300 each I might make five
but not until next fall. While I am at it I might be able to do a modular
pattern that will accommodate a three rotor. The three rotor
casting would be about $450

Paul Lamar

Count me in for one!  And waiting till the fall is "no problemo" ...
won't really be needing it until then anyway.

Thanks again Paul,

Dale Smith
